Abstract

The incidence of postmenopausal ovarian tumours range to 3- 18% * 1 .Most of the ovarian tumours in postmenopausal age group are taken as malignant unless proved otherwise, more so when they are bilateral* 2 . We are reporting a case of benign bilateral ovarian tumour in a postmenopausal lady. Incidentally the woman also had a bicornuate uterus with a rudimentary horn. The incidence of mullerian anomalies range to 2- 3%* 3 . They are known to cause pregnancy losses, preterm labour, labour dystocia* 4 & gynaecological symptoms like dysmenorrhoea and AUB. The above mentioned patient had uneventful obstetric history therefore emphasizing that mullerain anamolies do not need intervention when they are asymptomatic *5 .
